Vader(TOMO) – Firewire

The # 4 (Groveller) – Channel Islands

A performance based California utility board, the “four” was the fourth board in a series of numbered concept boards built for Dane Reynolds just prior to the 2012 US Open. Each concept board incorporated a blend of single to double with vee, 13”+ nose and 15”+ tail with a double bump. After a few months of tweaks and refinements, the result is a design that can be ridden in two different dimension sets to dial in the type of waves and conditions you ride. Dane rides a 5’8” x 19 1/2 a 2 7/16 as a GROVELER and a 5’9” 19 1/4 x 2 7/16” as a UTILITY board.

Swamp thing – Stacey

To continue on with our Swamp Thing collaboration we’ve teamed up with our friends at Surf Culture in Bondi. When we first approached Pat & Frog about the idea, they jumped at the chance, excited at the prospect of developing a limited edition model that would cater to a whole range of surfer that shop at the store. Being surfers, we tend to travel a fair bit looking for waves – sometimes scoring, sometimes not, and we usually do it with a bunch of boards in the car or board bag for the ever changing conditions. Now, as you are probably aware, being a die hard surfer in the Eastern Suburbs can be a challenge with the majority of your time being spent on something flatter, wider & fishier, surfing rip bowls, shoreys and crumbly beach breaks. When it does turn on and produce good quality waves it can be a challenge to transition from your everyday board to your step-up. Surf Culture came to us with the idea of combining two boards in one so you could surf rip bowls and pumping waves without having to change boards or waist valuable time getting used to your bigger board.
All boards come as FCS Fusion 5 fin setup. Custom boards available if you require Futures.

DFR – Channel Island

No, not the “Dane Fred Rubble” the DFR is a new design from Dane freaking Reynolds. An ultra-modern short board, the plan-shape allows for a short rail line while maintaining drive. The bottom is predominately single concave and features an aggressive flip in exit rail rocker.
A full outline provides enough volume to ride the DFR about the same length as your height. This short board is not only ready for big airs but also allows for the heaviest carves you can lay down.

The Motorboat – Channel Islands

Rob Machado wanted to bridge the gap between his Biscuit and Gravy, the Motorboat does that. Low entry rocker along with single to double concave with vee make this board really motor. Super fast and fun in flat faced waves, the Motorboat blends performance and volume into the ideal small to medium wave performance board.

Motorboats are built with either “Greenfoam” or recycled EPS, UV cure resins, and recycled fins, as Rob also wanted to make the Motorboat less impactful on the environment. A limited edition run of 75 boards signed by Rob are planned to have foam waste combined with concrete for water fountains commissioned by Rob’s foundation for schools. Size: Knee to slightly overhead; Skill: Novice to advanced
